Tassel O' Beads Ava Farrington, 2000
Published by Ava Farrington

8 1/2 X 11, Spiral Bound, 32 pages, Color photos. $19.95

So many great tassels, I don't know where to begin!

Ava gives us 16 different variations on the tassel, starting with a basic brick stitched base, and moving up to a great marble-topped tassel. All of these are wonderful, and can be used for a variety of purposes. I love her use of the tassel in a necklace, and they would make pretty cool earrings, if made with teeny 15/0 or smaller beads.

Wonderful instructions on the brick stitch construction of the tassel base, and some really good fringe instructions. These are so good that I would recommend the book on these alone! Written in a cheery, easy to follow style, with lots of tips and hints, this book is a delight!
